Shakespeare action figure: with my book and quill I can rule the world, Phroarrr!

Master Shakespeare is 442 years old today--have a berry, berry happy birthday! I wonder if you took a time travel machine to 2006, would you participate in our London Marathon, or even write my papers for me (would have to teach you how to type first)? You shall also find that human relationships seem to be more complicated, with much more options at the tip of our fingers. And yet some things never change:

'To me, fair friend, you never can be old,
For as you were when first your eye I eye'd,
Such seems your beauty still'.
Sonnet 104, William Shakespeare
